Game Collection

These games are owned by Jervis Library and are available at every Unplug and Play meeting.  Many of these games were acquired through donations, gifts and grants, for which the library is very grateful.  You may see a list of donors on the Contributions page.  Each game is shown with publisher, the recommended number of players, ages for which the game is recommended by publisher (U&P recommended in parentheses), and the average minutes per/round (information from BoardGameGeek.com).  Click on the game title to see more information about the game at the BoardGameGeek.com website.  Further links related to the game are provided if available, such as online or interactive versions of the game.

For information about games that have been Game of the Month (not necessarily games from the library's collection), please see the Volunteer Assignments page.
